Seeing Kaneki Ken's reaction, Kousen Yoshimura knew that tragedy had struck. He walked up to Hinami, picked her up, and then said to Touka Kirishima, "Touka-chan, let's go back!"
After speaking, Kousen Yoshimura looked at Kaneki Ken again and said, "Kaneki, you should return to Anteiku for now too!"
"Manager, aren't we going to rescue Madam Ryoko?" Touka Kirishima was somewhat confused as to why Kousen Yoshimura suddenly wanted to leave.
"Touka-chan, can't you tell?" Kousen Yoshimura prompted.
Hearing this, Touka Kirishima suddenly remembered Kaneki Ken crying when she questioned him. She immediately understood, but at the same time, Touka Kirishima became even more furious and suddenly punched Kaneki Ken.
"Why didn't you buy us some time!" Touka Kirishima immediately blamed Kaneki Ken.
Touka Kirishima's overly aggressive and violent behavior attracted the attention of the customers and the bookstore owner. The customers were filled with fear by Touka Kirishima's violence.
Some even immediately put down their books and quickly left the bookstore.
The bookstore owner naturally wouldn't allow Touka Kirishima to act recklessly in his shop. He immediately stepped forward and reprimanded Touka Kirishima, "Why are you hitting someone! Do you know you're scaring my customers away! Do you believe I'll call the police!"
After being knocked to the ground by Touka Kirishima, Kaneki Ken lay there motionless, as if his soul had left him.
"Touka-chan!" Kousen Yoshimura's authoritative voice immediately rang out. Unlike before, Kousen Yoshimura seemed very angry at Touka Kirishima's behavior.
The reason for Kousen Yoshimura's anger was simple. This was, after all, outside. If the bookstore owner actually called the police, the situation would become quite difficult to handle.
Touka Kirishima also realized that her actions were causing trouble, so she proactively apologized to the bookstore owner, "I'm truly sorry. I got carried away and hit my good-for-nothing brother! Please don't mind it! We'll leave immediately!"
Touka Kirishima's apology was quite sincere, a result of her accumulated professional experience from working long hours.
Seeing that Touka Kirishima's apology was sincere enough, the bookstore owner urged, "Hurry up and go! Hurry up and go!"
Touka Kirishima looked at Kaneki Ken, who was lying motionless on the ground. She still helped him up, and then left the bookstore with the manager, returning to Anteiku.
In comparison, Touka Kirishima felt that Ryuuji was more like a man should be.
Upon returning to Anteiku, Kousen Yoshimura carried Hinami upstairs and settled her in. Mr. Fueguchi, seeing Kousen Yoshimura carrying his daughter upstairs, asked Kousen Yoshimura, "Senior Yoshimura, where is Ryoko?"
"Fueguchi, Ryoko was killed by the White Heron!" Kousen Yoshimura said to Mr. Fueguchi very solemnly.
Regarding this matter, Kousen Yoshimura had no intention of concealing it. After all, it was something that couldn't be hidden. So, Kousen Yoshimura decided to be upfront about it immediately.
Upon hearing the news, Mr. Fueguchi's expression froze. He then suddenly knelt on the ground.
Mr. Fueguchi certainly couldn't believe or accept this. She was fine when she left home, and only a few hours later, she wasn't coming back!
